We have reached the end of the year without a UK general election or referendum, but 2018 has been one of the most eventful, crisis-riven years in UK democracy (since the last one). Meanwhile, globally democracy seems under threat even in established liberal democracies. Below is a selection of our articles from throughout the year that have sought to make sense of what’s happening in the UK and across the globe.

This year, we also published our in-depth audit of the strengths and weaknesses of UK democracy. The UK’s Changing Democracy: The 2018 Democratic Audit can be downloaded for free from LSE Press, or you can read articles from the book here.
